Volunteer Host Families Sought for 3-week International Homestay Program

How would you like to learn …About the bullfighters in Spain? To count to 10 in Chinese?

This summer (July 25 – Aug. 13) middle and high school students from various countries will visit our area and attend English classes and cultural activities for 3 weeks.  We are looking for volunteer host families to open up their hearts and homes for these students during their visit.

To host, your family will need to provide a bed for the student(s) to sleep in, 3 meals a day and transportation to a local bus stop.  On evenings and weekends you will spend time sharing your lives with the student(s) so that they may experience American family life first-hand while you learn about their culture.
